Value Collection 375-1456 Boring Bar C6 Carbide-tipped

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 375-1456 is a right-hand boring bar designed for internal diameter machining on lathes and boring mills. Built with a C6 carbide-tipped insert grade, it delivers the hardness and wear resistance needed for general-purpose steel and cast iron applications. The shank diameter measures 5/8 inches and the overall length is 3-3/16 inches. It accommodates a minimum bore diameter of 7/16 inches and a maximum bore depth of 1-11/16 inches. Machinists and toolroom technicians use this bar for precision bore finishing and diameter correction in production and job-shop environments.

This boring bar is suited for use in CNC lathes, manual engine lathes, and boring mills where right-hand cutting geometry is required. It is a practical choice for short-run and production jobs requiring clean, consistent bore finishes in steel, cast iron, and similar ferrous materials. The compact overall length makes it appropriate for toolholders and turrets where clearance is a priority.

Key Features

• C6 carbide-tipped grade provides good wear resistance for general ferrous machining
• Right-hand cutting direction compatible with standard lathe setups
• Minimum bore diameter of 7/16 inches allows work in small-diameter bores
• Maximum bore depth of 1-11/16 inches suits shallow to moderate bore lengths
• 5/8 inch shank diameter fits common lathe toolholders and boring bar holders
• Compact 3-3/16 inch overall length reduces overhang and chatter risk

Compatibility

Designed as a standard right-hand boring bar for use in lathe toolholders and boring bar holders accepting a 5/8 inch shank diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation and setup should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Power down and lock out the machine before mounting or removing the boring bar from the toolholder. Ensure the shank is fully seated and clamped securely in the holder to minimize runout and vibration during the cut. Inspect the carbide tip for chips or wear before each use and replace or resharpen as needed.
